About Cheonmasan
Cheonmasan rises in the middle of Namyangju, across Onam, Hopyeong and Hwado, and became a county park in 1983; Namyangju now runs it as a city park. With Cheolmasan to the north-west it belongs to the Gwangju range.
The main peak is steep on the north-east and gentle on the west; ridges radiate from it so the summit is visible from everywhere around.
Moran Museum, the Seoul film studio and Chukryeongsan recreation forest are nearby.
